Bugs item #471092, was opened at 2001-10-14 15:45 You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=403611&aid=471092&group_id=31885 Category: docs Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Assigned to: Dr Tarique Sani (tarique) >Summary: Update Quick Start (to use VHOST'ed install) Initial Comment: In section 1.3 of the documentation it says: VERY IMPORTANT NOTE: This is a quick installation guide to get you started if you have an installation where you control the web server, PHP interpreter and database server completely. They are not suitable for a web hosting setup where you have only limited to no control over the installation. The fact is that if you're using apache, you can use .htaccess to change practically all settings of the php.ini file: #not php.ini, but you can set php extensions AddType application/x-httpd-php .phtml .php .inc .ihtml #PHP Options (only examples) php_value auto_prepend_file local.inc php_value include_path .:/usr/local/lib/php:/home/user/www/phplib php_flag asp_tags On So as long as you have access to everything else, this isn't a problem. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: nathan hruby (nhruby) Date: 2002-07-02 14:53 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=19736 Then I think the bug is: Quick Start Shoud detail a VHost'ed install. I agree with this sentiment. Tarique & Layne, would confer to rewrite the Quick Start to reflect these changes please? Changing Bug Summary to reflect finalized bug ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Dr Tarique Sani (tarique) Date: 2002-07-02 06:50 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=269695 What is the bug? The document clearly states that see the next chapter for more information! Should QuickStart section be changed to show the usage of .htaccess only - this sounds logical as most people use it in vhost env ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Layne Weathers (layne_weathers) Date: 2002-07-01 18:26 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=278685 FWIW, I'd like to see the prefered installation in the documentation be a virtual hosting environment. Each site/project has its own copy of prepend.inc and local.inc in a non-servable user-specified location (personally I use /var/www/projectname/includes where web accessible files are in /var/www/projectname/docs). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: nathan hruby (nhruby) Date: 2002-07-01 17:52 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=19736 phplib is easier to install if you have root. I'm not seeing the bug, do you want the docs changed to reflect .htaccess instructions or would like the design changed to make something about installation easier? Making this a docs bug... ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=403611&aid=471092&group_id=31885 |
